True PG becoming extinct?

Seems like there are very few John Stockton type PGs in the league right now and very few if any coming out of college in the next few years.
What is the future for the true PG position?
Should Jazz try to get one at any cost?

It's not just PGs. Multi-skilled players overall are becoming more important. Look at the frontline spots as well. More and more teams are moving away from big lugs who's greatest (and sometimes only) strength was being big and taking up space and moving towards more skilled players. Guys like Chris Bosh are playing center, guys like Carmelo Anthony are playing Power Forward. etc. Being a "True" PG is almost an insult nowadays imo, meaning you CAN'T score.

not at any cost, but they should definitely focus on that. Sheved (or however you spell his name) should be someone the jazz should look into as well as Vasquez. They are atop my list of the best young pg's in the league.

jose calderon is a true pg. ive been proposing to trade for him forever here but people dont really like it. truth = people dont want true pgs, they want pgs with talent, if that just so happens to be a talented 'true' pg, so be it.

Wait for scouting report on Shved to get out there and he will become yet another unimpressive chucker.

I actualy like him a lot, but he's a little older and only a short term fix. If I had to choose between him and And Mo I'd go with Calderon. Most on here want the pg of the future, and that's not Calderon.
